Things Coach MK Can't Say In a Newsletter, 10/13/19: They Saw Us.


She Podcasts MK Fleming Coach MK Sarah Axelrod Mary-Katherine Fleming
FPP Came To Leave Early And Go To Bed


Coach Sarah and I are at She Podcasts in Atlanta. The highlight of the conference so far was from a Google executive who said, "ya'll work together? You all have like, amazing earrings." Kris and Sarah pointed to me, and I shrugged. "It's a little more fun than matching t-shirts". (She loved it.)


Huge thanks to everyone who showed for the group run! The highlight of the weekend was meeting Alicia and Patricia; thank you SO MUCH for coming out, it meant the world to us.

I am off to prep for my session, links are below but I will write a separate post tomorrow breaking down the weekend. We absolutely got what we needed. I hope you did, too.


You are coached. You ARE loved, and you are soooo winning at life.

I wish this week had been about Steph Bruce and Emma Bates and vomit and The Chicago Marathon, but we can't have nice things:


The News This Week was about Nike's Incredible Denial Crossing until Kipchoge broke 2 in the marathon and Sir Mo Farah and Salazar unfriended each other on Facebook

Nike played like they won:

Then snapped back to reality:

Oops, there goes gravity:

He's so Mad but He Won't Give Up:

Even though....he should. Hard to have pity at this point: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-7566671/Box-banned-drugs-left-kitchen-flat-Alberto-Salazar-shared-Mo-Farah.html


I'm not sure what Salazar is saying here, but it's odd that hs is responding: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/oct/12/sss


Seriously, my heart breaks for her.
